P)f - v k,,C& e ti LONDON, MONDAY EVENING. AUGUST 29, 1836 Letters and papers from Madrid, to the 22nd inst., have been received. 7 3y a Royal Deree, dated the 21st, the QUEEN REGENT has restored to their re spective appointments the seventeen ex-Deputies and other persons removed by IsTußiz, in consequence of "their adherence to to the MENDIZABAL Adminis tration. , A second Royal Decree announces the re appointment of General RoDIL to the Commander ship-in-Chief of the army of the North ; General SAN MIGUEI„ who first proclaimed the Consti tution of ISI2 at Saragossa, to the chief com mand of the army of the centre, and to remain Captain- General of Arragon ; the Marquis of IVIoNsALun, Captain-General of Estremadura ; DON ANTONIO QUIROCA, Captain-General of Granada ; and DoN DIONISIO MARCILLA, Military Governor of Ba dajos. Thus the appointment of General SAARS FIELD to the Chief Command of the army of opera tions is cancelled almost as soon as signed. It is al leged now that . 4;11c appointment was both provisional and conditional, the conditional part referring exclu sively to the probable course taken by France. Had LOUIS PHILIPPE changed his mind on the question of intervention, SAARSFIELD was to have retained the command, as the French soldiery are supposed to feel a stronger attachment to his person than they do towards any other Spani s h General. Some disturbance took place in Madrid on the night of the IBth, T out happily it was quelled without the effusion of much blood. We have copied the ac count of this Zray from the correspondence of a Morning Contemporary, so that it is unnecessary here to detail. the circumstances which led to it. The Government will require to proceed very cautiously, and by no means to suffer the appearance of disunion between the troops and the populace. The Constitution of 1812 has been proclaimed throughout the whole of the kingdom of Arragon. On the 16th it was solemnly proclaimed and sworn to in Barcelona, by command of General MINA. Order and place reigned in the city, the streets of which were beautifully decorated with flags, banners, and constitutional mottos. CALATRAVA had appointed the 21st for complet ing his Ministry. It was supposed that MENDIZABAL would decline accepting office before the meeting of the Cortes, when he is to defend himself against the charges preferred against him by IsTuarz. CALA TRAVA has endeavoured to convince him that his services are not less indispensable, than his support, to the present Government ; but, as yet, the ex-President has steadily refused the acceptance of the Portefeuille of Finance Minister. ARGUELLES has also shown unwillingness to accept office—less because he appre hends a change in the Administration, than on account of his declining strength and the delicacy of a worn out constitution. Himself and MENDIZABAL are, however, zealous in their support of CALATRAVA, who is very generally regarded as an honest, plain dealing, straightforward Liberal. Of ISTURIZ and his colleagues nothing positive is known, but that they keep themselves concealed. Ac cording to some persons, they were on their way to France on the 19th ; while others allege that on the 21st they were concealed in Madrid. Since her arrival in Madrid, the QUEEN REGENT has appeared well reconciled with the new state of things. A new election of the Cortes has been de creed for remodelling the Constitution, so as to suit a ll its articles to th e state of existing affairs in Spain. The new Cortes, so elected, are not expected to meet before the 25th of October.' The QUEEN'S safety and the tranquillity of Spain must now depend upon her MAJESTY'S firm adhe rence to the Constitution. If she again throw herself into the arms of the Serviles and Absolutists, she is lost. The French Papers of Friday and Saturday, re ceived this morning, are filled with rumours, specula tions, suggestions, and hints, intermixed with graver dis cussions, on the all-engrossing subject of the dissolution of the TRIERS Cabinet. A variety of articles from them, all bearing more or less upon the importance of this event, will be found in another part of The Sun, headed " Dissolution of the French Cabinet." For our own part, we see no reason to change the opinions which we so fully expressed on Saturday. The KING was most unquestionably right in refusing intervention after the Liberals had succeeded in proclaiming the Constitution of Cadiz, by consent of the Regent of SPAIN. Froiri that instant the whole question as sumed quite another appearance ; and from the tone of previous discussions in the Councils of Ministers, we were prepared to hear the KING suddenly cry out for intervention, and M. THIERS as strenu ously oppose it. How the KING and the Mini ster came to persist in the same opinions—while circumstances had entirely reversed the necessary results of their previous adoption—is a mystery which we cannot pretend to explain. According to the previous reasoning of Louts-PHILIPPE and M. THIERS, the Proclamation of the Constitution through Spain must have removed the KING'S scru ples, and justified a hostile intervention ; while, on the other hand, it ought to have silenced the demands of the Minister for the presence of a French army in the Peninsula. We still continue to be of opinion that M. THIERS will be allowed to remain but a short time out of office. His services, in the present state of public opinion in France, are all but indispensable to the Government. The Count MOLE and M. GUIZOT, are both spoken of as likely to be entrusted with the formation of a new Cabinet. We can hardly believe that either of them will be successful. GUIZOT is only fitted for the De partment of Public Instruction. There only would his philosophy assist him in the discharge of official func tions. He is a man of whom France may be justly proud ; for as a professor of History he stands unri valled in the world ; but he has not the quickness of per ception and the promptitude of despatch, absolutely re quired in a Minister charged with the management of the Foreign Affairs of such a country as France. As for Count MOLE he is no great favourite with any party. It would require the exercise of more royal and courtly influence than it would be prudent to waste upon a fifth-rate statesman to keep him in office for a single session, if opposed by THIERS and his late colleagues. The following are extracts from the Jo urna l s : PARIS, Auo. 26.—A letter from Toulon of the 22d August says, " The Minister of Marine has suppressed the naval station at Leghorn. The Admiral (Prossel) has therefore been obliged to write to the Captain of the Expeditive, now at Leghorn, to return immediately to Toulon. It is astonish. ing, that in a port which is the centre of all the legitimist in trigues, where the Carto Alberto was fitted out to bring us the Duchess of Berry, and where Don Miguel has fixed his head quarters, that our Minister should keep a vessel to watch the proceedings of his enemies, by placing at the dispo sa l o f our Consul-General a vessel always ready to sail and bring infor mation of all that passes in that focus of conspiracy. " All the vessels in the road, which had orders to be ready to sail at the first signal, are detained by a telegraphic order. There is hesitation in all that is intended to be done." PARIS, AUG. 27.—The Moniteur makes no reply to the Journal de Paris, and the Ministerial crisis remains at the point which we indicated : the Ministry dissolved, and over tures made to M. Mole. The Sentinelle des Pyrenees says that the division of Espartero proclaimed the Constitution of 1812 before the events at La Granja were known. It is asserted, says a Journal, that orders have been sent to General Lebeau to repass the frontier immediately.—Journal du Commerce, Aug. 27—Second Edition. The Swiss Journal Helvetie, persists in declaring that the famous letter of M. Thiers to the Duke of Montebello, the authenticity of which is denied by the French Ministry, is genuine. It says, "We are so able to certify that the copy of the letter is correct in substance, that we can correct some slight errata. Thus, at the head of the letter, instead of M. is Dec the original was Monsieur duc de Montebello ; and the words Blocus hermctique, are followed by these words, Pour les hommes et lee chose."

Politically speaking, their contents are unimportant, with the exception of the advices from Belgrade, relative to the discovery of a conspiracy in Constantinople to murder the Sultan. The following extracts from them are interesting : BELGRADE, A (To. 12.—Letters from Constantinople of the sth of this month, to some merchants here, announce that a conspiracy against the life of the Sultan had been discovered. Fortunately, the authorities were informed in time, so that a dreadful crime, which would have endangered the existence of the Turkish empire, has been prevented. Numerous arrests took place, especially in the night of the 3d of August, in con sequence of the discoveries that were made. Some days pre ceding, and before the plan of the conspirators was known, some symptoms of mutiny appeared among the marine sol diers, which likewise led to executions, that were effected in the most secret manner. The details of this important event were not publicly known, but it was generally affirmed that the conspiracy was very extensive, and that there were accom plices in the army as well as among civil officers. Tranquillity had not been interrupted at the time that the letters left Con slantinople, though there was, of course, a general fermen tation. BRUSSELS, Ara. 26.—An Ostend paper says The fol lowing vessel, Weltlust, Captain L. Roose, has just re turned from the Iceland fishery. The Captain reports that nine vessels belonging to the ports of Denmark have lately been totally lost in the dangerous coasts, where he has been for five months. He estimates the number of sailors who have lost their lives at 180. The Weltlust itself struck on some rocks below water, and owed its safety only to its being strongly built, and especially to a high wave which set it afloat again. The crew of the Weltlust (as we often so practised) have been barehead and barefoot on a pilgrimage to the chapel of Notre Dame de bon Secours. It makes one's heart bleed to think that these brave men, saved,.as they say, by a m i rac l e, have returned to their numerous families only to experience misery as the reward of so many dangerous labours, hard s hi ps , an d privations. Their cargo, consisting of 278 barrels of fi ne co d, being sold by auction on Friday last, did not produce enough to cover the expenses. These poor fellows are in consterna tion. They are heard to regret that they did not perish on the coast of Iceland." ANTWERP, Ace. 26. —The Lightning steam-boat, which has arrived to-day, brought the British Ambassador to th e Court of F rance , L or d G ranv ill e , an d his family. A letter f rom Gh ent says :—" W e t a k e pleasure in confirm. ing the increasing prosperity of all the manufac tures of the country. At Gh ent , an d t h e ot h er manu f act n ring towns of Flanders, the great number of workmen who come from be yond the frontiers find employment the same day that they apply to a manufacturer. If wages are not higher, it is owing to the low price of the provisions and the mildness of the season." The tribunal of Amiens has just decided that a combination of the owners of public conveyances (messageries) to lower their prices, in or d er to ruin other competitors, is an offence provided against by Art. 419 of the Penal Code. In conse quence of this decision, the proprietors of the " Messageries Royales," and those of the carriages of Lafitte and Caillard, are under prosecution, accused of combination in having made an exaggerated reduction of their prices, in order to ruin the proprietors of the " Messaigeries Picardes."—Brussels Papers, Aug. 27.

The Reform Association has just published a very seasonable admonition to the Branch Associations throughout the country, reminding them of the duties incumbent on them at the present important conjunc ture. The Tories are not to be allowed to disfranchise the Liberal voters by objections which are sustained only by the absence of the parties objected against. Against this disingenuous and pettifogging system of tactics it becomes all Reformers to be on their guard, and it is especially the duty of the Local Associa tions to look after and defeat such machinations. It is to be remembered that the Courts of Revision are held this year a month later than last year. They must be held "at some time between the 15th day of October inclusive, and the 25th day of November inclusive." Mr. HUTT, the Member for Hull, has just ad dressed aletterto the Secretary of the Hull Reform Asso ciation, wherein he says, " Great Britain has no Con stitution ; every thing depends on the caprice of a few Noble Lords. I have hardly any report to make to you, but of insults to the national representatives, and injuries to the nation. I have no good measure even to name, without feelings of shame and indignation. I have no hope to hold out for the future, except in the prospect of Peerage Reform." The above are sentiments which are daily and hourly making progress among the people. Even men the most moderate in their opinions, and the most distrustful of innovations, are now wakening to a conviction that the House of Lords must be reformed—a conviction to which they have been not a little assisted by the late insulting, braggadocio speech of the Tory Ex-Chancellor. Mr. HUTT goes on to say, " Either Lord MELBOURNE must take another step, or the country will require another Minister. This is my deliberate conviction, and I express it with an earnest hope that his Lord ship will not be found wanting on this great occasion. If, unhappily, it should prove otherwise ; if nothing be done by Ministers, with a view to preventing another such absurd session as that which has just closed, I shall not be found next year among the supporters of Government. Nor am I singular in this intention. Many earnest Reformers in the Commons are weary of attending, to support proposals of Reform which end in nothing ; and I am but one of a powerful party, when I say that the course which I may pursue next year, depends altogether on what may then be the po licy of Ministers." This is a significant hint, which we hope and trust will not be lost on Government. At pre sent the country places implicit reliance on their integrity of purpose, but will as certainly withdraw it, should they allow another Session to roll away without taking some decisive steps to reduce the refractory Tory Lords to obedience. The temporizing system can no longer be continued with safety. Ministers must take resolution and promptitude to their aid, and either consent to move onward at a rate proportioned to the just expectations of the Reformers, or else quit the helm, and make room for those who are less dilatory in their movements. Mr. HUME read them a lesson on this subject towards the close of the Session, when alluding to the unsatisfactory character of the English Church Reform Bill, and long before the next com mences, a similar lesson will have been read to them by every enlightened Constituency in the Kingdom. We find the following important communication, dated " St. Jean de Luz, August 21, Half-past Five p.m.," in the Chronicle of this morning, purporting to be from the regular Correspondent of our Contempo rary :—" This moment a shallop from St. Sebastian arrived off the fort below the town, and from the pas sengers (among whom were two Englishmen) I heard the following extraordinary but most gratifying intelligence : During yesterday every individual connected with the British Legion,fi-omthe highestto the lowest, received infrda all arrears of pay and allowances, and there now prevail throughout the force nothing but content ment and zeal in the cause in which they are engaged. The money arrived from Madrid, it is said, on Friday." We cannot vouch for the correctness of this state ment. The money, it is said, came from Madrid. By whom was it supplied ? We are confident it was not found in the Treasury. We have just seen a pamphlet entitled " The Pro gress of Russia in the East," which gives a curious and instructive expose of the course of policy pursued by the:unprincipled Cabinet of St. Petersburg, from the days of PETER the GREAT down to the present period. The pamphlet is remarkable for its condensed information, and contains a map of all the encroach ments which Russia has made on Persia, Turkey, Poland, the Krimea, and the provinces of the Cau casus—territories which she has possessed herself of without the shadow of a right, and with a craft and subtlety unparalleled in the annals of diplomatic ma noeuvrings. In the year 1781, for instance, when CATHERINE the Second was on the throne, this am bitious Power, being desirous of forming some esta blishments on the Persian coast with an eye to future conquests, requested permission of AGA MAHMED the Persian Viceroy, to build a " counting-house" on the shore of the Caspian, which modest request being thoughtlessly complied with, " Count VOINOVITCH,' says our auther, "the Commander of the Russian squa dron, immediately set about constructing a fortress to defend the harbour, at the distance of about fifty miles from the city of Asterabat, which he furnished with eighteen guns ;" and of course maintained his mili tary counting-house establishment on the coast, despite all the opposition which Persia, whose eyes were opened but too late, could bring to bear against him. In a similar tricky spirit, Russia, in the days of Po- TEMKIN, made her first serious encroachments on Asiatic Turkey. By assuming the form of a me diator, and disguising her intentions beneath the cloak of moderation, she completely threw the Su blime Porte off its guard, adopting in her ma nifesto, almost the very words which she lately used when addressing Poland immediately subse quent to the revolution of 1830. She protested, and called heaven to witness, that she was actuated by none but the most friendly feelings towards the SUL TAN; that the bare idea of aggrandizing herself at his expense was abhorrent to her notions of justice ; that she merely kept a few troops on his frontier in order to keep down the rebellious spirit of some of his pachas ; and yet, at the very time when she was making these protestations, she was hastening the march of an army into Turkey, which soon wrested from that Power some of its finest provinces Bessarabia, Livonia, Courland, Lithuania, and the southern Ukraine she gained possession of by the same underhand means, and, but that the jealousy of Europe is at length roused, would long ere this have established a third Russian capital in Constantinople. Even now, though apparently inactive, she is exerting her utmost vigi lence to secure, not only this important prize, but the acquisition also of the frontier provinces of Persia, in order that she may reduce the SCHAH, as she has al ready reduced the independent chiefs of the Caucasus, to a state of absolute vassalage, and facilitate the march of troops to our Indian possessions. There is nothing, in fact, too daring for the ambition of this giant 'Power. She has vast resources at command, together with a Cabinet cool, sagacious, and skilled in all the arts of political intrigues, and not to be diverted from its course by any sense of what is due to honour and justice. Such being the case, France and England should keep their attention constantly fixed, with a wholesome distrust, on the proceedings of Russia as regards Persia and the Sublime Porte,for as the author of the pamphlet before us, shrewdly observes, " Peace in Europe can be preserved only so long as Turkey is preserved. If the Ottoman Empire should indeed crumble to pieces, as some have supposed it is crum bling, the distribution of the fragments would not be effected without bloodshed. The only chance, there fore, of maintaining peace is to maintain the integrity' of Turkey." We adverted briefly, on Thursday last, to an excellent pamphlet published by RI DGWAY, under the title of Remarks on the present state of Agriculture. The author of this phamphlet, the Chairman of the late Agricultural Committee of the House of Commons, has laid before the public the result of the labours of the Committee, and in so doing has performed an ac ceptable service to his country. Many persons engaged in agricultural pursuits, whose minds have bean biassed by prejudice or false representations, will find an autho ritative and safe guide in Mr. SHAW LEFEVRE. We say authoritative, because the author's reason ings and recommendations are founded on the evidence adduced before the Committee—that evidence, be it ob served, coming not out of the mouths of land-agents and corn-factors, but from witnesses actually engaged in agriculture—practical, working men, against whose testimony no suspicion can lie—no suspicion, at least, of indifference to the interests of the farmer. In the numerous petitions presented to the House of Commons complaining of agricultural distress, the chief subjects of complaint were tithe, county-rate, high way -rate, and poor-rate. These Mr. LEFEVRE dis patches successively with a very few remarks. Tithe, as a grievance to the agriculturist, has been abolished. The only portion of the county-rate, the burden of which can be diminished, is that expended in prosecu tions, and there is no doubt that some new arrange ment with respect to this branch of expenditure will be effected in a short time, and will to a certain small ex- tent benefit the farmer. The same remark applies to the highway-rate. On the important subject of the poor-rate we find the following observations, which we are sure will afford high gratification to all who re gard the moral state of that numerous class compre hended under the term " poor" as a subject of the deepest national importance : The Poor Rate has hitherto been a great burthen to the farmer, in those districts in which agriculture has been de pressed from other causes. Whenever an opportunity offered for obtaining satisfactory evidence of the working of the new Poor Law Bill, the Committee did not fail to take advantage of it ; and it is gratifying to learn, from various parts of the country, that the effects of this measure have exceeded the anticipations of its most sanguine advocates. Admitting the last eighteen months to have been a period peculiarly favorable to the trial of this experiment; owing to the low price of pro visions, and the great demand for labour, the saving under the head of poor rate has been far greater than could have been expected in so short a time, and if any portion of this amount has been spent in additional labour for the cultivation of the soil, a double benefit must have ensued both to the labourer and his employer. But the moral effects of this important measure will be yet more beneficial to the agriculturist than the pecuniary relief. The agricultural labourer is already aware, that under the new system of administering relief, the parish must, in future, be his last, instead of his first resort, and there has, consequently, arisen in his mind a strong desire to find work, and remain in the service of his employer : this has increased the industry, and improved the conduct of the labourers, and their services have in consequence become far more valuable to the farmer, than the reluctant labour of those who, from the certainty of obtaining ample assistance from the parish funds, had scarcely any stimulus to exertion. In these liberal and enlightened sentiments we heartily concur, and we think it is not saying much to assert, that such testimony as this in favour of the new system—the testimony of farmers who are in the midst of it, and have seen its working with their own eyes, will, if it does not silence the senseless cavilling of the Times, and other factious yelpers about the cruelty of the New Poor Law, completely neutralize its effect on the minds of all who are capable of judging calmly and impartially on the subject. Mr. LEFEVRE, as might be expected, touches the landlords with a gentle hand. He cannot, however, avoid condemning the short-sighted policy pursued by that selfish class towards their tenants. Instead of lowering their rents as they ought to have done at the end of the war, and putting them on a peace establish ment, they, being the makers of law, passed in 1815 that atrocious Act, the aim of which was to fill their own pockets at the expense of the community, by pre venting all importation of foreign corn until grain rose at home to a starvation price. When this infamous, and not more infamous than absurd, attempt to fix permanently a high price on the first necessary of life by'act of Parliament failed, and the golden dreams of the landlords were dissipated, they nevertheless clung to their favourite doctrine of high rents. They (lid, to be sure, remit a little, but in such driblets as to be of no real benefit to the tenant ; whereas had a suf ficient abatement been made at once, as Mr. LEFEVRE justly observes, " less upon the whole would have been required, the capital of the tenant would not have been diminished, and much of the present distress might have been averted." " Bilberry Thurland," the new work of fiction now on the eve of appearance, will present a refreshing contrast on the one hand to the high-flown romances with which of late the public have been satiated ; and on the other to the effemi nate insipidities of stories of " high-life." The present novel deals in strong realities, and exhibits the humours of rustic life, from the country magistrate to the humbler farmer, the poacher, the gipsey, and the vagrant. It is, indeed, a kind of " Beggar's Opera" in prose, and partakes in no small degree of the searching wit and satire of Gay. The celebrated Miss Martineau, whose works on " Political Economy" and other subjects are well known to the public, arrived by the Orpheus yesterday, from the United States. Miss Martineau has passed the last two years in va rious parts of the American Union. She is a present paying a temporary visit to her brother, the Rev. Mr. Martineau, who resides permanently in Liverpool. Her sojourn in America will doubtless form a theme for the future exercise of her pen. Fresh snow has fallen on several of the mountains in Perthshire. Harvest has commenced in Scotland, and early next month the sickle will be in general employment. Thursday Lord Lyndhurst and a party of ladies and gentlemen arrived at the Star Inn, in order to see the Univer sity. Friday they visited Blenheim, and returned to the Star in the evening.—Oxford Herald. A short tim e s i nce , when several trading vessels were moored in the harbour at North Shields, a salmon of 101bs. weight leaped into one of the jolly boats—being pursued, it is supposed, by a porpoise.—Stamford Mercury. The second anniversary of the Cheshire Conserva tive Association was celebrated on Wednesday last by a din ner at the Court-house, at Stockport, on which occasion about 200 gentlemen assembled.

Sir Robert Peel remained on a visit to his Noble friend the Duke of Rutland at Longshawe, in Derbyshire, about ten days, to shoot grouse, and then returned to Norris Castle, at which delightful villa the Right Hon. Baronet will remain until the end of September. UOURT CIRCULAR. Mr. John Smith and Messrs. Crane and Wilmot had inter views with Lord Glenelg on Saturday, at the Colonial-office.

His Majesty gave a grand dinner in the evening in St. George's Hall, to a numerous party, including the officers of the 2d Life Guards and of the Royal Fusileers. The bands of both regiments were in attendance during the evening in the gallery of the Hall. After several of the toasts salutes were fired from the cannon on the terrace.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The return of the weekly liabilities and assets of the Bank of England, from the 31st May to the 23d August, present the following : " On comparison with the like return made up to the 26th July, the circulation of the Bank of England had in creased in the sum of 121,0001. ; and their deposits have in creased in the sum of 301,0001. The securities in the possession of the Bank have increased in the amount of 1,000,000/. ; whilst during the same period, or rather since the last monthly return, the stock of bullion in the coffers of the Bank, to meet liabilities in paper and depo sits, the same in effect to the amount of 32,857,0001., has been reduced to 6,325,0001., which is 601,000/. less than on the last return. The amount of the rest has increased in the small sum of 7,0001. on the half-year from the 9th Febru ary.

We have ship-letters from Lisbon, Cadiz, Gibraltar, Oporto, Cape Coast Castle, Jamaica, Demerara, and Bahia; and from New York August Ist; Hobart Town, 4th May ; Bombay, 16th March, and Cape of Good Hope. The Hobart Town papers, received to the 14th of May, have the following : " In our journal the week before last we entered very fully into the present truly alarming state of the Colony, as caused from the injurious effects of the impounding act, and the altera tions of the land regulations, the former having at one sweep an nihilated all the small settlers, with their flocks of sheep and cat tle, whilst the latter has produced the greatest possible distress amongst thousands of families, at the same time showing that the amount of imports last year were 280,0001., chiefly for salt provisions for Ireland, and New South Wales, and live stock from Twofold Bay. Instead of being dependent as we are upon such vast importations of provisions, making the ba lance of trade against the colony, nearly to 182,0001. last year, Van Dieman's Land ought not only to support itself, but export largely both wheat and meat. The Colonial Times says the beggary to which this system of the Government has brought the people, must, however, shortly come to a regular wind up. " IMPORTANT MEETING.—WC, the undersigned Magistrates, and the inhabitants of the colony hereby convene a public meeting, to be holden at the saloon of the Royal Hotel, Syd ney, on Tuesday the 12th day of April, to take into conside ration a printed petition to the King and House of Commons. " Wheat continues to range from 6s. 6d. to Bs. 6d. per bushel ; there is no variation in the price of Colonial produce. The Wheat market experienced a depression during the week —several purchases have been made at 7s. 6d. and Bs." In the Hobart Town paper of the 30th of April, we find the following : " By the Arab female prison ship, which arrived yesterday, the following important letter has been received:— " DEC. 9, 1835.—Sir, I have had the honour of receiving your letter, and shall see that the petitions are presented in the proper quarter, feeling highly sensible to the honour of your confiding them to me. The paper with which you were kind enough to favour me I read with much interest, nor should I ever cease to feel very warmly in the fate of these colonies, which I believe are likely to found new empires, that will spread and perpetuate the glory and the language of that country of which I am a son and a representative. " H. .L. BULWER." Boston papers have been received to the 3d August. The New Orleans bulletin of the 16th July confirms the crossing of the Sabine by General Gaines. It is also stated by an ar rival direct from Galverton Island that the Texian army under Rush were encamped at Xerxes Point, 25,000 strong, and the Mexicans to the number of 10,000, were making rapid strides towards them, being within a day's march. Another account from New Orleans of 18th July, says—" From Tex ian spies, sent for the purpose.of reconnoitering the enemy, it is ascertained that the Mexican army has not advanced, and that its numbers are continually diminishing by desertion. The Texians are in fine spirits, and have no lack of arms. From all the information received, we are firmly of opinion that the Mexicans will suspend active hostilities against the Texians for the summer." TIIE FUNDS.

Dennis Leary, a sturdy-looking Irishman, who works is the Tunnel, was charged this morning before Alden' WINCHESTER, with endangering the life of Mrs. Alexander' the wife of a publican.
